While I really don't mind putting picture of myself out there, I do have to be very discreet due to my job and location. Besides I'm here really to make new friends, who we enjoy chatting--at this stage, appearance isn't a huge deal, and if we go further, we'll eventually see what we look like. But the personality's the most important thing though.

Hi my name is john and im a nude dude from manchester england i am new to this site and i needed some naked pics for my profile so i posted a request for a photographer on the forum and had a reply from a fellow naturist he took my pics and i took some of him because of this i have found a naked lady to make love under the stars with and to go naked horseriding with shes even put a nude pic of me on her screensaver how cool is that? ps if anyone wants a naked pic taking of themselves contact me perhaps you too can find love!

I didnt find it easy to post myself naked on the internet, and even when I did I purposely didnt feel I should show my face. But, I think everyone should have a photo of some sort of themselves on their profile page, and to be honest I dont really feel comfortable about replying to those who contact me and dont have a photo. With genuine people who have contacted me, I have felt more than comfortable in sending them a naked photo of myself complete with my face.

And now, I've posted photos of MYSELF in the altogether.
Like this one...

One common issue that I've talked to people about, especially younger ones, is that there are people who steal the pics and create false profiles with them. Guys are taking the pics from beautiful young ladies and posing as these ladies to trade with other young ladies, and basically gathering portpholios. I personally don't have to worry about someone stealing my pics, lol. But I do understand.
However, I like to know who I'm talking to. Even if the pic is clothed put something up. When I talk to people real world, I like to look in their eyes, and although I can't do that on here, I would at least like to know what you look like.

In general, I agree that it is much better to post pics on profiles. My wife has a phobia about the safety of the internet, and does not want any pics of herself, or of me, on the profile. Until recently I had my own pic on the profile.

I agree, this does make it difficult, I am a male, one half of a couple, with no pic. If you chat with me, very, very occasionally my wife will join the conversation.

My apologies if anybody is unhappy about this, but even if I was lying, why would my sexuality effect the conversation? I am a nudist, not some strange sex fiend!
